Heatwave Modeling and Resource Allocation for Power Grid Failures - M3 Challenge Third Place Presentation

Watch the presentation by Trinity Preparatory School Team (#18076) from Winter Park, Florida, who earned the Technical Computing Third Place in the 2025 MathWorks Math Modeling Challenge. Discover how this team of high school students used mathematical modeling to predict temperature changes during heatwaves and developed resource allocation plans to minimize the effects of heat waves and power grid failures. The 23-minute video showcases the team's approach to the challenge that engaged over 3,600 students across 794 teams. Learn about the prestigious M3 Challenge competition organized by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) and sponsored by MathWorks, which awards over $100,000 in scholarships annually to inspire students to pursue STEM careers.
